Finally got round to another run

22nd of March was the last time I went for a run. Thats over 5 weeks ago. Shame on me :-(

Anyway, thought i had better get back into it so had a brisk 5k jog to the dam and back. Not my fastest time but got the achy bones moving again.

A Full Circuit

Finally decided today was the day to go for it and run a full circuit of Grafham Water.

Well, didn't do too bad. I made it round at least. 15K in 1 hour 31 mins. Really pleased to have made it all the way round as i had intended to do it last year but just never got round to it.

Lord Coe, if you stumble over my blog I will be ready for 2012.

10K the hard way

This morning I decided to try the 10K route around Grafham from Mander Park to Perry but this time going over the hills. Wasn't as bad as I had thought it would be, must be getting fitter.

10K in under an hour is still good for me.

I am now seriously contemplating a whole circuit of Grafham on Saturday. Watch this space.

Recent Runs

Not updated the blog for a while so a few runs to catch up on.

Last week I decided to attempt a 10K run for the first time and surprised myself by managing to complete the distance without throwing up, passing out or needing medical attention. 1hour 2 mins was the time which although no world record was at least respectable, for me anyway.

That was on the Wednesday so on Saturday I figured I could do it again so set out to better my time. The time was better at 59 mins 56 secs. I was well pleased with beating the hour.

Today I tried something different. 7.5K was the target but instead of running around the Dam at Grafham I went the other way round through the nature reserve, littleless wood and taking in the hills. Figured it would be a bit more testing than the flat. It was but the time was still good. 43mins 13secs was the fastest I have ran 7.5K.
